January 2010

Science

Vertebrates:
Reptile - lapbook, origami (snake)
Amphibian - lapbook, origami (frog)

This month, we had been working on the animal lapbook. This should have been better if followed accordingly from water to air habitat but Teacher Mom decided to let the kid have a hand on deciding which one comes first. It should be fun at this point anyways.

TM prepared(pre-cut) the papers, searched for the books and P did some interesting reading and gluing at the library. We can't take books out of the library.

Language and Lit

The Wizard of Oz

a. Included a little of geography. We now know where to find Connecticut on the U.S. map. Our next will be Kansas.

More to do on ti next month. Tornado, dogs, etc.

Math

Clocks

Last month, we started on the clock thing. Used Mammoth Math pages outdoor. We actually went far this time, at Baker's. But P seemed got an overload with the minute part. TM went overboard. We have to slow down for a month. We'll be reviewing this before this month ends.

Geography

We discovered another good software to play maps. Seterra. We had occasionally played this one this month. We've covered Southeast Asia. But TM has already explored Northern and Mid-east Asia. Located usual places mentioned in the news (CNN) such as Pakistan, Afghanistan. ;)
